Influence of COVID-19 Outbreak on portable buildings Industry Development
During the epidemic, the resumption of work, operations, revenue targets, and industry development of the portable buildings industry were all challenge. With the outbreak of a global pandemic, many have faced salary cuts and job losses. Covid-19 has become a threat to the entire world's economy and has negatively impacted all kinds of markets, including the portable buildings market. With less disposable income, broken supply chains, and obstruction in construction activities due to lockdowns, the market's growth is expected to slow down.
First of all, marketing channel sales will be affected differently, the COVID-19 Outbreak has led to a decline in offline passenger flow, and the advantages of e-commerce companies have become prominent. During the epidemic prevention and control period, some portable buildings enterprises did not carry out internet marketing and promotion for their business, so they encountered great resistance in undertaking business. For enterprises that fail to make good use of network promotion means, there is almost no market development during the epidemic period, and the original offline market development plan is disrupted, and the epidemic will face fierce market homogenization competition, which is expected to have a great impact on the company's business throughout the year.
In addition, upstream and downstream interactions will lead to disruption of business. The epidemic will have a short-term impact on portable buildings industry, but it is relatively limited. The transportation of raw materials and products is restricted, resulting in an increase in product inventory and a decrease in equipment operating rate. Due to the impact of the epidemic, the production of raw materials and equipment procurement and transportation supply are difficult to be in place, and upstream enterprises affect the work schedule of downstream enterprises. Equipment manufacturing and product manufacturing enterprises in portable buildings industry are affected to different degrees, and the production and delivery work may be delayed to some extent. Meanwhile, if it fails to meet the customer's delivery time requirements according to the contract, it may lead to the customer looking for another enterprise and lose business.
Moreover, the COVID-19 virus outbreak has affected the normal operation of the industry. The impact of COVID-19 on the portable buildings industry will involve all major links and all entities in the industry chain. The company's management efficiency has declined, commuting has been severely hindered, production plans have been severely hindered, network expansion has been delayed, marketing has been delayed, brand adjustments have been forced, market sales have declined, and company and employee revenue have declined. The government has also put forward higher requirements for the production and operation of enterprises. Although various industries around the world are gradually resuming work, production and demand will not pick up rapidly and substantially, and will require a certain recovery period.
COVID-19 to impede Opportunities for New Construction Activities Owing to Reduced Investments. COVID-19 has caused considerable economic damage. The nationwide lockdown globally has halted construction and impacted the labor-intensive sector. This is due to the migrant workers being stranded at construction sites, and the halted construction activities are hampering the growth prospects across the world. s per the International Labor organization study, nearly 52%of labor absenteeism is observed in the Indian construction market, reducing the overall construction activities across the country. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic led to market uncertainty and volatility worldwide. Moreover, the stock market volatility worldwide has had an adverse impact on stock prices and trading volumes for manufacturers. This has resulted in a significant decline in new residential and non-residential constructions that has shrunk the demand for portable buildings. However, during the epidemic, with the increase in the number of infected people, the demand for portable emergency rooms and portable wards in the healthcare field has increased, which has stimulated the demand for portable buildings.
